Artist Aaron Kai’s Waves to Hit Singapore’s Shores this Friday

The Official Aaron Kai Pop Up Shop comes to SUP store, Singapore. Aaron will be at the store this Friday, March 27^th, to launch his capsule collection of headwear and you’re all invited to the party.

Aaron Kai, a post-pop artist, takes on the world as he embarks on his inaugural #AaronKaiWorldTour to promote his work. So far, he’s been to places such as Guam, Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Malaysia. Next on his map is Singapore, where he will make an appearance at the SUP store this coming Friday, March 27^th, to launch his capsule collection of headwear in collaboration with premium headwear label, Official, along with an exhibition of his work.

Aaron, who’s based in San Francisco, was born in Hilo, Hawaii, and naturally draws inspiration from the waves, beaches and surfing. Aaron got his headstart in art sketching Dragon Ball Z‘s Super Saiyan as a kid. That was then. Today, Aaron’s art veers towards themes such as 40s, weed, and women, and all this using a palette of high-contrast primary colors “because it clashes so bad that you’re forced into looking at it” (source).

Aside from canvases and walls, Kai has also transferred his works onto streetwear and accessories. He started printing his art on t-shirts, which eventually developed into his own label, Lemon. And then there’s the capsule collection with Official, in which Aaron’s art is screened on a range of snapbacks, campers, bucket hats and visors which will be available in Singapore from Friday onwards.

This Friday, come meet Aaron Kai, groove to the beats of DJ Koflow, and leave inspired. First 30 customers to purchase Official x Aaron Kai merchandise this Friday will take home a free goodie bag from Official with products and posters by hand-screened by Aaron himself.

SUP Presents: The Official Aaron Kai Pop Up Shop Capsule Collection Launch will be held at the SUP store on 34 Haji Lane on Friday, March March 27^th from 7pm until 11pm. More information on the event can be found here
